Ricki Lake is giving fans a candid look at her cosmetic surgery journey, posting striking before-and-after images from her facelift.

The 57-year-old actress had the procedure in 2024 and celebrated its two-year milestone with a fresh Instagram post highlighting the transformation.

In the update, the Hairspray star included photos taken at her surgeon’s office, along with several selfies captured after she had recovered and settled into the results.

Her latest post arrives a few months after Lake revealed that deciding to get a facelift was an “impulsive” choice that followed her 40-pound weight loss.

Writing alongside the images, she reflected: “Happy 2 year anniversary to me. Yes, 2 years ago today, I had a face lift.”

Lake went on to clarify the details for curious followers, adding that she underwent “a deep plane lower face and neck lift along with a mild co2 laser.”

She also revealed her ‘incredibly talented and kind’ surgeon was Beverly Hills-based Dr. Allen Foulad.

She said Foulad ‘made the experience a wonderful one and my results have been remarkable, natural and long-lasting.’

Lake also opened up about how she sought out her surgeon after she lost weight and wanted to tighten up the ‘extra skin.’ 

‘Back in 2023, I had lost 40 lbs over the course of a year, and did not like the extra skin that hung from below my chin,’ she explained in her caption. 

‘It was never going to tighten up by itself,’ she continued. ‘I took a leap of faith and I’m so grateful I did.’

She also praised the increasing transparency from public figures regarding any cosmetic surgeries they may have undergone. 

‘I am also very glad to see so many people over these past couple of years opening up about their own plastic surgery journeys,’ she wrote. 

She also highlighted the long-lasting results as she noted that ‘the last two pics’ she shared ‘are recent and without makeup or filter.’

Lake also previously posted a bandaged-up selfie posing alongside her post-procedure caretaker, her husband Ross Burningham.

She has been married to her third husband, a lawyer, for four years. 

She got engaged to Burningham in early 2021 after dating for about six months and got married in 2022.

Last year, she shared a similar post to celebrate the results of her facelift a year after the procedure. 

‘One year ago today I did a thing,’ she wrote alongside photos of her face and body after losing weight and before getting surgery. 

‘One year later, I look back on my brave choice and consider it one of the best decisions I ever made for myself,’ she continued. 

‘I share with all of you, as I am an open book and always will be,’ she added. 

In the past, Lake has also been vocal as she shared her diet and exercise regimen amid her weight loss journey.

She previously revealed that she shed pounds by sticking to a keto diet and doing intermittent fasting. 

She also said she would go on daily hikes while wearing a weighted vest and do Pilates.
